r/wemetonline is a subreddit for giving and receiving advice, venting frustrations and sharing stories about that special someone you met online. Just because you haven't touched him or her physically doesn't mean that your love is any less real.

When you make a connection with someone that you haven't met it can be hard to explain to the people immediately around you what that feels like without them fearing for your safety and feeling like you're going to be scammed. We're all going through it here, so we know exactly how you feel.

Even if you've met your SO you are still welcome to post and share your stories! You haven't magically graduated our little family because of it!

Feel free to post your story or question from another subreddit, we're happy to give you another perspective. But please do not direct link from other subreddits. Instead copy and paste the text into a new topic here. All topics that crosspost link will be removed.
